8. TERM AND TERMINATION

8.1 Humi may provide Free Services and trial subscriptions to you in its sole discretion, and Humi may limit such eligibility or duration to prevent free trial abuse. If we provide Free Services to you, such access is governed by the Agreement. The Free Services will be available to you until the earlier of (a) the end of the free trial period (if not terminated earlier) or (b) the Subscription Start Date, as stated in the Agreement. At any time prior to or during the free or trial period, Humi may, in its sole discretion, terminate that access without prior notice and without any liability to you, to the extent permitted under applicable law, for any reason, including to prevent abuse of the free/ complimentary services/ trial access. After the free/ complimentary services/ trial access period expires, you may continue using the Services in a paid subscription, if available, or as otherwise permitted by Humi. Unless you purchase a subscription to the applicable Service before the end of the free trial, all of your data in the Service may be permanently deleted at the end of the trial, and we will not be under any obligation to recover it. During the Free Services/ trial access period, no express or implied warranties shall apply to the Services; all Services are provided “as-is” with all defects, and no technical or other support is included.

8.2 For some Free Services or trials, we require you to provide an Authorized Card to enable access. By providing such details you agree that at the end of your applicable free trial or promotional period, your subscription to the Services will automatically renew and you will be charged the Fees at the beginning of each billing cycle until you cancel the Services in accordance with this Agreement. If you do not want this charge, you must cancel before the end of the trial or promotional period by sending us an email at support@humi.ca at least 2 business days prior to the end of your trial period. Subscriptions shall start on the Subscription Start Date noted in the subscription terms provided to you at the time of subscription and continue till the end date specified therein (the “Initial Term”), and will be subject to the Fees. At the end of the Initial Term, this Agreement and applicable subscriptions shall be automatically renewed for an additional term equaling the duration of the Initial Term (each a “Renewal”) subject to the current version of this Agreement then in effect, unless otherwise stated in the Humi Agreement. Collectively the Initial Term and any Renewals constitutes the “Term”.

8.3 At any time during the Term, you may elect to not renew this Agreement, or remove any of the optional Services, or modules, or reduce the number of Users, by giving at least thirty (30) days’ written notice to us prior to the end of the then-current Term. You may do so by sending us an email at support@humi.ca. Any such notice will be deemed to be effective at the next Billing Date following the end of such thirty (30) day notice period (“Cancellation Notice Period”). For clarity, and by way of example, if you are on a monthly subscription which is billed on the 1^st of every month, a notice given on 15^th of July will be deemed effective September 01, and access to the Services will be terminated on September 30th. In such case, Fees for the Services are not refundable (if paid in advance) and not eligible for any proration of unused subscriptions or refunds, even if access to the Services is cancelled or terminated.

8.4 We may terminate this Agreement at our discretion by providing thirty (30) days notice.

8.6 We may, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default:

(a) proceed to protect and enforce our rights and remedies including by arbitration or lawsuit. You will pay us for any reasonable costs, fees and expenses we incur (including reasonable legal fees and disbursements) if we prevail in any action, suit, proceeding or arbitration except to the extent prohibited by law;

(b) debit any amounts owed to us under this Agreement from the Authorized Card or other bank accounts you have authorized.

(c) without any additional notice to you and with immediate effect, cancel, block or otherwise prevent or terminate access to, the Services.

You will pay us for any reasonable costs, fees and expenses we incur (including reasonable legal fees and disbursements) related to any Event of Default or exercising any of our rights and remedies.

(b) Either Party makes an assignment for the benefit of its creditors;

(d) Either Party is liquidated or dissolved.

8.8 Upon cancellation or termination of this Agreement, Customer’s license to use the Service shall be revoked and, Customer shall immediately cease Use of the Service.

(a) procure for Customer the right to continue using such Service; or

(b) replace the same with non-infringing components or modify the Service so that it becomes non-infringing. If neither of these options is commercially reasonable, Humi may terminate this Agreement and require that use of the Service be terminated and, refund to Customer all pro-rated, prepaid Fees associated with the remaining unused portion of the then-current Term. Humi shall have no obligation for any such claim based on Customer modification of the Service, its combination, operation, or use with equipment, data, or Service not approved by Humi or as a result of any combination with or use of the Customer Data. This paragraph states Humi’s entire obligation regarding infringement or the like, and the indemnification provisions of this Section 8 shall be the sole and exclusive right and remedy of each Party.

Appendix B — Payroll Terms

1. Humi makes commercially reasonable effort to accurately calculate federal, provincial, and local payroll taxes. In the unlikely event such calculations are incorrect due directly to Humi's gross negligence or wilful misconduct, and such error results in a penalty, Humi will reimburse all or a portion of the penalty (the “Humi Guarantee”) as provided below.

(a) The amounts payable by Humi pursuant to this Appendix B shall be THE GREATER OF EITHER (A) THE ACTUAL AMOUNT OF THE PENALTY (NET OF UNPAID TAXES, FEES AND INTEREST) ASSESSED AGAINST CUSTOMER, TO A MAXIMUM OF ONE THOUSAND CANADIAN DOLLARS ($1000), OR (B) THE TOTAL AMOUNT (NET OF TAXES) OF FEES CUSTOMER HAS PAID TO HUMI FOR THE SERVICES IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTH PERIOD PRIOR TO THE DATE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CAUSE OF ACTION OCCURS, AND IN NO EVENT GREATER THAN THE ACTUAL AMOUNT OF THE PENALTY (NET OF UNPAID TAXES, FEES AND INTEREST) LEVIED AGAINST THE CUSTOMER TO THE CANADA REVENUE AGENCY.

(b) The Humi Guarantee is subject to the following additional conditions, each of which must be satisfied in order for a claim for reimbursement to be payable:

(i) Customer must provide Humi with the penalty notice received from the Canada Revenue Agency within thirty (30) days of the date of the first notice;

(ii) The penalty must be the direct result of incorrect calculations made by Humi and not the result of incorrect data provided by or on behalf of a Customer or User;

(iii) The penalty must apply to a time period during which the Customer had an active Pricing Plan, and was in good standing; and

(iv) Customer permits Humi to act on Customer’s behalf in any communications or negotiations with the Canada Revenue Agency, and Customer promptly provides Humi with all such documents and information, and makes available any personnel, as requested by Humi (or any of its advisors or representatives), acting in good-faith.

(c) Customer shall be responsible for any unpaid taxes, fees and interest charges due as a result of a penalty notice being issued to it by the Canada Revenue Agency.

2. In addition to the representations and warranties contained in Section 9.2 of this Agreement, Customer represents and warrants that Customer has obtained all consents necessary to provide Humi with the information required to provide the payroll services. This includes consent to access Customer's, and its employees' bank accounts to process direct deposits of payments and to debit overpayments and payment errors. Customer expressly authorizes Humi to process such deposits and debits as required from time to time and Customer agrees to hold harmless and indemnify the Humi against any damages, losses or claims arising in respect of payroll processes and access to employee accounts (excepting fraud, willful neglect, or manifest error by Humi.)

3. If you use our payroll Services pursuant to any monetary obligations you have under this Agreement, you hereby authorize us and our respective vendors and agents to initiate debit and credit entries to a bank account identified by you (“Bank Account”), or any other account maintained by you at any institution that is a member of the Canadian Payments Association, doing business as Payments Canada, all in accordance with this Agreement. You agree that any withdrawal by us and our vendors and agents in accordance with this Agreement are PADs for business purposes, as defined under Rule H1 of Payments Canada. You hereby waive the right to receive advance notice from us and our vendors and agents of any and all such debits. This authorization will remain in effect after termination of this Agreement and until all of your obligations to us have been paid in full. If you change the Bank Account, this PAD authorization will apply to the new account and you shall provide us in writing such information regarding the new account as we deem necessary. Such new account shall thereafter be and become the “Bank Account” for the purpose of this Agreement. It may take us up to ten (10) business days after receipt of a written notice from you to reflect in our system any change to the Bank Account. If you change the Bank Account, you agree that you are responsible for all costs incurred by us in connection with your decision to change the Bank Account. Humi transacts with a leading Canadian Schedule I bank for payment processing related to the payroll Services.

4. Payroll Service requests: In addition to the Fees listed in the subscription terms provided to you at the time of subscription, service requests related to the Payroll Services may be subject to additional fees as provided on:‍

https://support.humi.ca/hc/en-us/articles/6344776076567-Payroll-service-request-fees

5. Implementation Plan for Humi’s ‘Managed Payroll’ Services:

(a) Onboarding & Implementation (Week 1)

Humi will facilitate a collaborative process in gathering employee and company information, validating data and prepare CSV imports for account set up. In addition, Humi will outline an onboarding process with timelines. Once Customer’s data is uploaded into Humi’s system, we will configure the payroll account detailing extra TD1 amounts, additional taxes, benefit deductions, vacation pay and extra wages.

(b) System Testing and Configuration (Week 2 – Week 4)

After the onboarding and implementation phase, Humi’s payroll team may conduct a series of reviews to test accuracy and validity of payroll data. This process will entail running payroll for one pay period in congruence with Customer’s current payroll provider (if any). This testing method ensures employee pay amounts align with prior pay periods and aims to ensure transition is seamless.

Humi’s ‘Managed Payroll’ Service will process employee payments, remit taxes, and keep records each pay period on a recurring basis. Digital paystubs will be emailed to employees on the morning of pay day. Additional employee compensations, including: bonuses, commissions, other amounts, expense reimbursements and vacation pay will be collected from Customer up to 3 business days before the payroll deadline. Data will be reviewed, audited, imported and recorded into Humi’s system and reflected on employee paystubs.

(d) Servicing (Recurring)

Customer will be assigned a Humi Payroll Specialist that will be responsible for delivering our managed payroll experience and providing support. Based on the payroll exception report, Humi will adjust changes in employee income/ deductions into payroll taking into account: compensation adjustments, new onboards/terminations, updates to employee banking information and vacation payouts. In addition, Humi will update changes in benefit deductions based on employee salary changes; the adjustments will be configured on a percentage of salary basis.

Appendix C — Security Policy

High Availability AWS Infrastructure

Humi leverages Amazon Web Services (AWS) to deliver a scalable cloud computing platform designed for high availability and dependability.

AWS uses redundant and layered controls, continuous validation and testing, and a substantial amount of automation to ensure that the underlying infrastructure is monitored and protected 24x7.

AWS enables Humi to ensure secure transactions between separate data and software applications, data replication across multiple physical data center locations, and to obtain and configure capacity with minimal friction.

Network Security

AWS provides several security capabilities and services to increase privacy and control network access. Humi uses:

Built-in firewalls that allow control over network access
Encryption in transit with TLS across all services
DDoS mitigation technologies

Physical Security

Humi’s data centers are co-located in some of the most respected datacenter facility providers in the world. Humi leverages all of the capabilities of these providers including physical security and environmental controls to secure our infrastructure from physical threat or impact. Each site is staffed 24/7/365 with on-site physical security to protect against unauthorized entry. Security controls provided by our datacenter facilities includes but is not limited to:

24/7 Physical security guard services
Physical entry restrictions to the property and the facility
Full CCTV coverage externally and internally for the facility
Biometric readers with two-factor authentication
Facilities are unmarked as to not draw attention from the outside
Battery and generator backup
Generator fuel carrier redundancy
Secure loading zones for delivery of equipment

Access to the management network infrastructure is provided through multi-factor authentication points which restrict network-level access to infrastructure based on job function utilizing the principle of least privilege. All access to the ingress points are closely monitored, and are subject to stringent change control mechanisms.

Systems are protected through key-based authentication and access is limited by Role-Based Access Control (RBAC). RBAC ensures that only the users who require access to a system are able to login. Humi considers any system which houses Customer data that Humi collects, or systems which house the data customers store with Humi to be of the highest sensitivity. As such, access to these systems is extremely limited and closely monitored.

Additionally, hard drives and infrastructure are securely erased before being decommissioned or reused to ensure that Customer’s data remains secure.

Access Monitoring

Humi leverages AWS CloudWatch to enable continuous monitoring of our production environments. Our logging includes system actions as well as access and commands issued by our system administrators.

Logs are reviewed to identify potentially malicious activity within our infrastructure. User and system behaviors are monitored for suspicious activity, and investigations are performed following our incident reporting and response procedures.

Audit Logging

All database transactions are logged using a user identification number, IP address, timestamp, and information about the action performed.

Employee Access

Humi leverages AWS IAM access control management when issuing access to all environments. The keys that AWS uses are 2048-bit SSH-2 RSA keys and are regarded as an industry standard. Humi implements internal processes for issuing and recalling keys from authorized employees.

Data Transmission and Storage

All data is encrypted in transit with TLS, using a 2048-bit key, signed using the SHA256 RSA industry standard algorithm. Data at rest (residing in our data centers) is encrypted using the industry standard AES-256 algorithm.

Snapshot and Backup Security

Humi retrieves, encrypts, and stores hourly backups of our production data storage systems. These backups reside within our data centers for security and compliance purposes.

Attestations and Certifications

All AWS data centers meet and exceed the strictest of certification and compliance laws. These include:

SOC 1/SSAE 16/ISAE 3402 (formerly SAS 70)
SOC 2
SOC 3
FISMA, DIACAP, and FedRAMP
DOD CSM Levels 1-5
PCI DSS Level 1
ISO 9001 / ISO 27001
ITAR
FIPS 140-2
MTCS Level 3

Application Development

Humi employs SDLC practices combined with internal controls to give users peace of mind. Developers run a battery of tests against all change requests spanning multiple environments to ensure consistency and backwards compatibility.

Release management and deployment is driven through an AWS Pipeline architecture, ensuring the ability to back out of changes at any point.

Token based authentication provides Humi administrators total control over access and access expiry.

Service Level Agreements

Humi has service level agreements in-place with our infrastructure and monitoring vendors. AWS provides a 99.99% uptime guarantee across all services and applications that Humi leverages.

Financial Transactions

Humi uses Stripe as our credit card storage and processing vendor. Stripe has been audited by a PCI-certified auditor and is certified to PCI Service Provider Level 1. This is the most stringent level of certification available in the payments industry.

All card numbers are encrypted on disk with AES-256. Decryption keys are stored on separate machines. None of Stripe’s internal servers and daemons are able to obtain plaintext card numbers; instead, they can just request that cards be sent to a service provider on a static whitelist. Stripe’s infrastructure for storing, decrypting, and transmitting card numbers runs in separate hosting infrastructure, and doesn’t share any credentials with Stripe’s primary services.
